Did 18 on Friday try something different did a 3 mile loop then home for 3 miles on the treadmill? then out again for another 3 mile loop and so on seem to work ok was going to do the Longleat 10k but there opening the park a week early which would have meant dodging cars so have deferred till next year have the bath half next month will be a good way to test the foot out

Well Poohbear Brighton is over she's got to have a ingrown toe nail removed and a chemical put on it to stop the nail growing back others wise she would have the same problem again the operations next month and take 6 to 8 weeks to heal

went out on Friday for my run due to a massive miss calculation on my part ended up doing 19 miles but if I’m honest I’d had enough by about 14 so i think I’m going to have to revise my training plan and adjust the run walk pattern some what

15 miles for me today got lucky and just missed the rain does anyone one know whether it’s cups or bottles of water this year i have tried getting in touch with the Brighton marathon team but they haven’t bothered getting back to me

I hope if you've stared training it's going well and for those starting after Christmas I hope it goes well

Did 8 on the treadmill Monday rested Tuesday as my foot was playing up a little then out for a 5 miler this morning not shore now how it's going to go over the next few days will play it by ear

Envious plodder thanks for that Poohbear (the wife) did struggle a little as her knee started playing up early into the run and by 8 i shed had enough i did suggest that she caught the bus home as it wasn’t worth aggravating it but Poohbear’s a stubborn devil and insisted on finishing the run
